Stop Being A Bitch Aho


Recommended Posts

We're finding what happens when you have a team TOO encouraged to play selflessly and together. Nobody wants to big dog the game when you need it, except for Svech in spots.

 

We need somebody to step up and decide "yeah I'm just gonna take this entire shift over" occasionally. I love that the boys are all role playing and doing their individual jobs for each other's success, but goddamn somebody pick spots to be selfish. We need to create lanes to abuse.

 

What did Florida do? They leaked a man streaking in high slot and had great scoring chances repeatedly. They literally flipped out strategy and found the weakness if you aren't taking pucks away at the blue line on entry, you don't have numbers to cover high slot.

Yet even with all that if it wasn't for 3 turnovers by a rookie and an uncharacteristic Staal turnover. They only score 1-2 goals and that game goes into OT.

Oh I know, but the first period and a half showed us the glaring issue schematically. They executed more consistently because they didn't have the issues in their depth that we did. Fourth line couldn't matchup well, bottom pair was atrocious. Need to do some half switches with the second and third lines. Staal line steals an extra 5 minutes per game and maybe we can mitigate it?

I think ghost was serviceable. He kinda got fuged over by having a turnstile on the right side.

Ghost definitely made the most of a bad situation. He can't be everywhere at once

    • Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.  
    • I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
    • I hate Marchand, but if he became a free agent.....
